About Atlas Dental
Dentistry built on trust
Atlas Dental Studio & Orthodontics was founded to provide exceptional, personalized care for individuals and families in Concord and the East Bay — in an environment that feels calm, modern, and genuinely welcoming.
Our Story
A practice built on relationships
Atlas Dental Studio & Orthodontics was founded by Dr. Christopher Lee with a clear vision: to provide exceptional, personalized dental care in a comfortable, modern environment — one that feels nothing like a typical dental office.
Dr. Lee believes patients deserve more than just technically sound dentistry. They deserve a provider who listens, communicates honestly, and builds a treatment plan around their actual goals — not just their teeth. That philosophy shapes everything at Atlas Dental, from the design of the space to the way appointments are run.
Atlas Dental serves individuals and families across Concord, Walnut Creek, Pleasant Hill, and the surrounding East Bay. Whether you're coming in for a routine cleaning or a comprehensive smile transformation, you'll find the same calm, attentive experience every time.

Dr. Christopher Lee, DDS
Founder & Lead Dentist, Atlas Dental Studio & Orthodontics
Dr. Christopher Lee founded Atlas Dental with a clear vision: to provide exceptional, personalized dental care for individuals and families in a comfortable, modern environment.
A Bay Area native, Dr. Lee earned his bachelor's degree in Molecular and Cell Biology from the University of California, Berkeley before receiving his Doctor of Dental Surgery from the University of the Pacific, Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry in San Francisco.
His primary areas of focus are general and family dentistry and orthodontics. He enjoys caring for patients through every stage of life — from routine preventive visits and restorative treatment to comprehensive smile and bite correction with clear aligners.
His approach is thoughtful, conservative, and highly personalized. Rather than focusing only on individual teeth, Dr. Lee considers how a patient's oral health, bite, smile, comfort, and long-term goals work together. He believes patients deserve treatment that not only solves today's concerns, but also supports lasting health and confidence.
Dr. Lee has a particular passion for orthodontics and clear aligner treatment. He regularly pursues advanced education in orthodontics, restorative dentistry, facially driven treatment planning, and functional occlusion — so that he can provide comprehensive care under one roof.
Patients appreciate Dr. Lee's approachable personality, honest communication, and attention to detail. He takes the time to explain treatment clearly, answer questions, and make every patient feel heard, respected, and confident in their care.
Outside the office, Dr. Lee enjoys dancing, working out, exploring new restaurants and coffee shops, and spending time with the people closest to him. He is also naturally tech-minded and loves finding thoughtful ways to use modern technology to make dentistry more precise, comfortable, and convenient.
